Today's wizard rock pick: The Brothers Black

[pegkerr]

A new band by the name of The Brothers Black. They have three songs up, and I like each one. There's a lovely, poignant Christmas song from Harry's point of view, "Hogwarts is Home":

When you think you've got so far to go
And you know you face it all alone
You wonder if you'll ever see what's good again
And you believe what you believe is unbelievable

The stairs may change and you'll lose your way
But you can always find it here . . .

Hogwarts is home
Hogwarts is my home
Hogwarts is home for Christmas

There's a wistful one, a little bit bluesy, from the point of view of Hermione, one of the best I've ever heard about her relationship with Ron: "Kiss Me":

Ronald Weasley
You make it so easy
To pull out my hair
With the way that you stare

Friends so long now
You think you’d know how
To take the wheel
And just say what you feel

I know you think
They all want Harry
Open your eyes
Kiss Me . . .

I particularly like the line,

And when they laugh at your hand-me-down robes
I’ll have to remind them that I broke Malfoy’s nose

Finally, there's a rocking "Don't Want to Be A Deatheater." The singer's voices are pleasing, and they know what to do with their instruments. Well produced. You can purchase these three songs for 99 cents each through Snocap. I'll be definitely keeping my eye on this group, waiting for more.

Once again, please comment if you like.

I like all three, and wish the first two had free downloads. Oh well - I still enjoyed the evening's entertainment. Thanks for sharing!
